have a 99 24v auto, going to have a rfesh rebuit trans with either a single billit or triple disck converter, have juice w attitude and smarty stacked on level 8, 22.5 would be comming off and stocker going on, i assume to put her in 4 low, and D? also what type of launch should i do and what level on the attitude? any suggestions thanks guys -scott:thumbsup

I think traction bars are a must have...Keep your springs from twisting into s-hooks.

what about the edge , what leve lwould be safe , same with the smarty, and what about boost? or do i just start off with none? thanks -scott also traction bars are kinda expensive arnt they?

 

[99cumminsho]

They can be but its better than having to replace your entire rear suspension.

 

[white99]

so i need traction bars befoeri even think aboutit then right?

 

[Chris Mallett]

My advice, YES you will need bars before you hook to a sled. There are many ways to build your own, try searching for DIY bars on here...I have seen a few people do this for pretty cheap.:thumbsup

Built mine for less than 100 bucks! work awesome and they would be a very good idea with 4 tires puting the power to the ground.

4 low 2nd gear juice cranked all the way up, stand on the brakes give it some fuel and stall your converter as much it it will let you when you feel the tires startin to spin let off the brakes and give her hell!

trans wise...hmm lol got scammed for 2grand tryin to get a loan so i guess yo ucan say im stuck takin he cheap way out considering im just about broke, trans is gettin rebuilt as of now, just stock specs with line pressure up a little and a cheapp shift kit, only good thing is a bd triple disk convertor.

devil dog diesel,thanks !!thats the info i was lookin for ,as well as the traction bars, glad someone saved me from rippin out the suspension. whew

 

[BossHawg600]

If you realy want to pull bad and dont have time for traction bars, I got a realy redneck way of making some that take 5 min, a chain and a binder. Works just the same but not as practical for DD!

 

[DevilDogDiesel]

No problem buddy! Good luck! Also suspension blocks help a TON!

haha thats a good one .might try n fab up a set in school. thanks -

ddd-how much of a pain is it to put blocks in n pull em out for DD?

 

[DevilDogDiesel]

Easy as 2 bolts each side!

I got two hooks on mine with bars , but remember if you start bouncing give it up.....not worth breaking stuff....

 

[white99]

ok, well see how things go, after i get bars etc, do you think my tranny would be alright with a fresh rebuilt, with oem clutches, upgraded vb , silly shift kit and a bd tc?

 

[KIPO]

with 4.10's I think you should be fine. That should take a little strain off the tranny.

 

[white99]

got some a/t on now so hopefully ill make it out to the buck for hte last powerfest this season... will be workin on makin some bars up. well see how it goes !!
